ELECTROCHEMICAL SYNTHESIS OF PERFLUOROALKYLACETONES

Article abstract of DOI:10.1007/BF00961239

The interaction of electrochemically generated radicals in the electrolysis of the perfluorocarboxylic acids R_FCF2COOH (I), where R_F = F (a), CF3 (b), C2F5 (c), C3F7 (d), C5F11 (e). and C7F15 (f), with isoprenyl acetate (II) was studied.The dependence of the results of the electrolysis on the adsorption capacity of the anode permits the proposition that the interaction of (II) with the ECG-radicals occurs close to the surface of the electrode.The yield of the perfluoroalkylacetones comprised 30-37percent.
